The up/down voting ratio on your comment is quite enlightening with regards to bias (or pride).

SIBS came up with virtual credit cards since at least 2009 - those are Visa or Mastercard cards, mind you, although that's defined by the debit card that it's associated with (so defined by the bank).

You can pay your bills in Portuguese ATMs, buy tickets, recharge your travel pass, withdraw money without a card, etc... makes most other systems seem like the stoneage.

Portugal has it’s own network, Multibanco

That's the customer-facing ATM network, i'm not so sure SIBS's infrastructure doesn't rely on Via/Mastercard, even if they provide SPEA facilities.

Seriously? Blockchains are only useful for cryptocurrencies?

Too bad about crypto. You mean cryptocurrencies? Which ones?

Housing market crash of 2008 anyone?

it’s still useful to be able to dictate fiscal policy.

Very much so. People forget that the Euro comes with strings attached.

I'd rather have currency sovereignty. The euro is cute if you're a large country in the "free" trade region that supports it... otherwise it just means local produces unable to compete with scale economy and the slow dismantling of your country's production and transformation into a services country. Yay europe. But let's blame China instead.

Old Mercedes is the choice for taxis in this neck o' the woods.

 

At least a dozen organizations with domain names at domain registrar Squarespace saw their websites hijacked last week. Squarespace bought all assets of Google Domains a year ago, but many customers still haven’t set up their new accounts. Experts say malicious hackers learned they could commandeer any migrated Squarespace accounts that hadn’t yet been registered, merely by supplying an email address tied to an existing domain.

The NSA has a video recording of a 1982 lecture by Adm. Grace Hopper titled “Future Possibilities: Data, Hardware, Software, and People.” The agency is (so far) refusing to release it.

Basically, the recording is in an obscure video format. People at the NSA can’t easily watch it, so they can’t redact it. So they won’t do anything.

 

Regression in signal handler.

This vulnerability is exploitable remotely on glibc-based Linux systems, where syslog() itself calls async-signal-unsafe functions (for example, malloc() and free()): an unauthenticated remote code execution as root, because it affects sshd's privileged code, which is not sandboxed and runs with full privileges.

 

Ooooh... car BSOD vibes...

 

Another great Fortnine video just came out, this time about Honda.

Didn't quite explore the supply shortage impact on JIT as seen during the pandemic, though.

 

If it ain't 'murican we ban 'em!

Guess all foreign cars should be next, what with all the telemetry and all...

 

TL;DR?

PRAGMA journal_mode = WAL;
PRAGMA busy_timeout = 5000;
PRAGMA synchronous = NORMAL;
PRAGMA cache_size = 1000000000;
PRAGMA foreign_keys = true;
PRAGMA temp_store = memory ;

 

...which is why i prefer AM for hardware longevity.

 

A 22-year-old man from the United Kingdom arrested this week in Spain is allegedly the ringleader of Scattered Spider, a cybercrime group suspected of hacking into Twilio, LastPass, DoorDash, Mailchimp, and nearly 130 other organizations over the past two years.
